July 18, 2015, preseason friendly match between Eerste Divisie team Utrecht's second team and Go Ahead Eagles.
With the new Eerste Divisie season just 20 days away, both teams organized this friendly for two purposes.
1. Help players find their form. 2. Determine the team's starting lineup for the new season.
"Tang, do you think we'll get a chance to play today?"
Zaka on the bench looked worried. He had just been promoted from U17 and wasn't sure about coach Melent's substitution habits.
"We should be able to play in a friendly, right?"
Tang Ye replied from the side, "But it doesn't matter, if we can't play, we can't play."
"Huh? Tang, you were in the second team last season. Did you play in any league games?"
"Yeah!"
Tang Ye twisted his head, stretched his muscles, and held up five fingers.
"Played 5 games?"
Zaka's eyes lit up. Tang Ye was only 15 years old last season, and a 15-year-old player appeared in 5 Eerste Divisie games.
Looking at it this way, it seems like I can get a lot of opportunities too?
"It was 5 minutes."
Tang Ye corrected, leaning back in his chair on the bench, holding the back of his head with both hands, looking so relaxed that Zaka on the side was amazed.
Dude, you're already phoning it in at 16?
What about me at 17? ...
At the same time, on a certain Happy Beans website in China.
"Good evening, brothers, um? This stream isn't very clear, wait a moment, I'll find a new stream."
The streamer Wang Chao was fiddling in the background. After about half a second, the screen in the live broadcast room suddenly froze, and the reloaded screen was indeed much clearer.
The game had already started, and Wang Chao calmly dragged a line of numbers to the upper right corner of the screen. This was a QQ group he had created.
"Brothers in the live broadcast room can join the streamer's fan group. There are daily red picks and guaranteed picks recommended in the group. Also, if you don't have a betting website or want a better betting website, you can contact the streamer privately!"
Wang Chao finished his classic opening remarks, and the game time had already reached the 4th minute.
"Yes, my personal recommendation for this game is to bet on the score, 0:2 or 0:3 are both fine."
[0:3, does the streamer think so highly of Go Ahead Eagles? I don't think Go Ahead Eagles is much stronger than Utrecht's second team. Although it's the second team, Utrecht is a giant after all]
[Let's be conservative and bet on Go Ahead Eagles to win outright. The score is too mysterious. When I first entered this circle, I had 2 brothers, but now they're gone]
[Go Ahead Eagles, charge!]
[I heard that Utrecht's second team has a Chinese player, looking forward to it!]
[You're talking about Tang Ye, right? He won't get a chance to play. I watched the entire Eerste Divisie season last season, and he warmed the bench for all 38 games.]
[Pure hater, Tang Ye clearly played for 5 minutes, okay? And he even had 1 touch!]
Although it's the low-profile Eerste Divisie league, Happy Beans' livestream is quite lively today, because Utrecht's second team has a Chinese player
Since effort is useless, might as well just have a good attitude.
When winning or losing has nothing to do with you, invincibility is not far away.
And Tang Ye is that invincible person!
Just then, a line of small print appeared before Tang Ye's eyes.
[Due to your "let it rot" attitude since childhood, you have wasted your innate football talent. In 7 years of playing in Europe, your total playing time in official matches is 5 minutes. At the age of 22, you, who have already wasted your talent, have come to the China Super League, relying on your status as an overseas player to act cool in the China Super League.]
[This year is 2036. At the age of 37, you retired in humiliation from China League One and became a football commentator, taking pleasure in smearing football stars. Watching the geniuses on TV show themselves in the top five leagues, you suddenly feel a little regretful, lamenting that time cannot be turned back.]
[You looked down at your body, regretting that you didn't fully realize your talent during your playing career, so you decided to retire and make a comeback.]
[Appear in a warm-up match, reward: random midfielder star skill]
